The Monino Military Airforces Museum possesses over 120 engines (piston, air-breathing jet and rocket ones) from O.Kostovich gasoline engine for airship (1883) to the most up-to-date engines.
The collection also includes a lot of model aircraft, air guns, missiles and rockets, bombs, fuses and ammunition, navigation instruments, pieces of radio and communication equipment, rescue equipment, flight insignia, uniform, combat banners and flags, documents, letters, personal things of pilots, as well as many art exhibits. There are also many books, photos, films on the history of aviation in the Museum's library. The Museum's exposition, the total area of which is about 20 hectares (including the airfield), is located on the tarmac, in hangar and halls, shops of the former aircraft repair plant were adopted for the halls. The vast territory allows the museum to expend its exposition, while the nearby runway can receive new exhibits: many of museum airplanes and helicopters made their last landing on that runway. In the halls historical material and exhibits are arranged chronologically, in the open air planes and helicopters are mainly arranged according to the names of their design bureaus.
We would be also happy to help you in booking hotels, transfers and other travel services in Russia to make your dream trip come true.
